Indian media reported that Coach Park Hang Seo is one of the candidates applying to lead the Indian team. Previously, the Indian Football Federation fired Coach Igor Stimac due to poor results in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers. "Coach Park Hang Seo is a hero of Vietnamese football. He has successfully led the U23 team and the Vietnam national team. Coach Park builds a very effective counter-attacking style of play," the Times of India reported. According to information from the Indian Football Federation, there are currently more than 200 applications for the position of the national team of this country, and Coach Park Hang Seo is one of the prominent faces.

The Indian Football Federation has shown great interest in Coach Park Hang Seo because he has achieved many impressive achievements in his 5 years working in Vietnam. However, the organization affirmed that the selection process will be very thorough. "We do not consider any applications until the deadline. Next week, the Indian Football Federation will arrange the CVs, classify the coaches and continue the selection process," said an Indian Football Federation leader. According to the Indian press, the biggest obstacle for Coach Park Hang Seo to lead the national team is salary. Mr. Park used to receive about 50 thousand USD/month when he was the captain of the Vietnamese team , and this figure is much higher than the Indian Football Federation paid to the recently fired Coach Igor Stimac. Coach Park Hang Seo and his representative company have not yet officially spoken out about wanting to lead the Indian team. The Korean coach is currently a senior advisor at Bac Ninh Club and runs the Football Academy named after him in Vietnam. Recently, there has been a lot of information about Coach Park Hang Seo accepting Mr. Duc's offer to lead HAGL from next season. In addition, a team in the North is said to be contacting the former head coach of the Vietnam national team.
